MVVA and CDF present detailed designs and planting choices.
Representatives from Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates,
Inc., and Conservation Design Forum, Inc., came to ASLA
headquarters to present what may very well turn out to be the
final design concepts for the ASLA green roof project. The major
elements of the roof remain intact, but several of the elements
have been tweaked to ensure that the roof provides the Society
with the best and most varied demonstration green roof possible.
Michael Van Valkenburgh, FASLA, Chris Counts, ASLA, project
manager and associate in charge of the project, and John
Gidding, project designer, presented the overall design and
technical aspects of the roof; while David Yocca, ASLA, project
principal for CDF, presented on plant selection. Click here for boards presented at the meeting.
